Run Club Is the New Tinder: The Wellness Pressure No One Talks About


Listen Later

Is “wellness” actually making us unwell?

You drink the matcha, take the magnesium, wear the matching set, hit reformer Pilates at 6am, track your sleep, post your smoothie bowl… and somehow, you still don’t feel good. If wellness is supposed to feel well, why are we so exhausted by it?

In this solo episode, I unpack what no one in the wellness space is really talking about:

The pressure of doing wellness “right” and how it might be making you feel worse.


I unpack:

  • What the 2024 Lululemon Global Wellbeing Report revealed about wellness burnout (spoiler: Australia is ranked #1)
  • Why so many of us feel like we’re doing “all the right things” but still not feeling good
  • How social media made wellness the new aesthetic—and the pressure to “look well” even when you don’t feel it
  • The truth behind wellness comparison culture, and how it’s just diet culture in a new outfit
  • Why doing more isn’t the answer (and what actually is)


Plus, I’ll share some tangible, realistic strategies I use with my 1:1 clients to help them ditch the overwhelm and actually start feeling well again from foundational habits to bite-sized micro actions that genuinely move the needle.

Whether you’re burnt out from trying to do it all, confused by conflicting advice, or simply ready to feel good in your body again—this episode is your permission slip to ditch the pressure and come back to you.


You don’t need a new to-do list. You don’t need to do what everyone else is doing.


You just need what works for you.
